New England casino winner: $10 bet wins six-figure jackpot prize
A $10 bet ended in a six-figure jackpot prize for one New England casino player.
On Aug. 8, a Mohegan Sun player was betting on a slot machine in the casino’s Casino of the Sky section. The Connecticut player was betting $10 on Dragon Link’s “Happy and Prosperous” slot machine when they hit the jackpot, winning $111,861.34.
Overall, there are about 4,000 slot machines, including 22 new ones , and more than 300 table games at the Connecticut casino. There are two areas, Casino of the Sky and Casino of the Earth , that offer slot machines.
Players must be 21 years or older.
In July, a New Hampshire couple walked away with a six-figure jackpot prize after betting $20 at Mohegan Sun.
The couple, identified as Samantha L. and Thomas S., were playing the slot machine game “Huff N’ Even More Puff” by Light & Wonder in Mohegan Sun‘s Casino of the Sky when they won the jackpot. The prize was worth $131,186.64.
And about a week before, one of the largest jackpots ever won at Mohegan Sun was hit.
While playing on a “Spanish 21″ table in Casino of the Earth on July 9, the player made an optional $5 Bonus Spin Xtreme side bet. The bet ended in Triple Diamonds, which landed them the $2,018,742.30 jackpot.
“Not only is this the biggest jackpot win at Mohegan Sun in 2025, but it also ranks among the top five largest table game payouts ever at Mohegan Sun,” a press release from the casino stated.
